The iconic Sammo Hung co-stars with his son Sammy and Kane Kosugi in Choy Lee Fut, a new martial arts film that has received a good bit of coverage here at ScreenAnarchy.
The story revolves around two best friends in Europe (played by real-life best friends Sammy Hung and Kane Kosugi) who love martial arts. They are Hung Gar exponents after learning the art from Hung's father (Sammo Hung). When they want to learn other forms of martial arts, they head off to China in an attempt to learn the art of Choy Li Fut Kung Fu. Kosugi's character wants to learn the art because his grandfather was once defeated by a female exponent of the art and wanted to learn but never had the chance to. When the duo head to China, they learn that the Choy Li Fut school is being challenged by a rival school. Hung and Kosugi enter a martial arts tournament to save the future of the school.
Co-directed and choreographed by former Jackie Chan Stunt Team member Sam Wong with Tommy Law as the other side of the directing team, we've run two previous trailers for the film, both of which included various degrees of unfinished footage. But now we've got an extended - as in nearly four minute long - effort cut together from the finished stuff and the difference is remarkable. Check it out below.
